Reverberate Hills

Twelfthnight

Make me a willow cabin at your gate
And call upon my soul within the house;
Write loyal cantons of contemned love
And sing them loud even in the dead of night;
Hallow your name to the reverberate hills
And make the babbling gossip of the air
Cry out: "Olivia!"

 O you should not rest
Between the elements of air and earth
But you should pity me.

Renaissance Roman

I'd like to run through Bringhurst's historical interlude from beginning to end, since I've seen some really bad "histories of western typography" floating around the web lately. We'll see how this goes.
